 * In addition to the "form letter", I just wanted to note that while we appreciate your contribution, we must require that all images and text meet our copyright policy, unless they can be utilized under our non-free content guidelines. If you have an image you'd like to contribute and are unsure of its legal status, you may wish to consider seeking feedback first from our media copyright questions board. Thank you. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:44, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Understood. I thought the image was free (a) since I found it her fan site having been post by a member, and (b) since it looks like a publicity shot which, as I understand it, are either public domain or free-licenced.  The media copyright questions board needs to be better highlighted on the copyright dialog page, BTW, as I did not spot it.
 * Publicity shots of people are seldom usable here, I understand. Images are not my primary area, but I'll mention the possibility of linking the MCQ more prominently; that sounds like a good suggestion. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 22:23, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the help Moonriddengirl! One wonders if any images of living public figures are useable...?  Perhaps I need to photograph her myself and post that image? LOL!
 * That would be lovely. :D Non-free content says, under "unacceptable use" for images, "Pictures of people still alive, groups still active, and buildings still standing; provided that taking a new free picture as a replacement (which is almost always considered possible) would serve the same encyclopedic purpose as the non-free image. This includes non-free promotional images." I'm not sure how you can tell if a promo picture is free use, unless it's explicitly labeled so. I once tried to write a fair use rationale for a promotional image of a non-living person only to be told it wasn't usable. I trot off to MCQ whenever I'm in doubt. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 23:08, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Your recent edits
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 00:21, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to introduce inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, you will be blocked from editing. ''We welcome everyone to Wikipedia, and everyone is allowed to contribute. Please review the information posted to User_talk:Jubileeclipman before attempting to post another article. Best regards. '' Oliver  Twisted  04:34, 17 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Don't understnd. I thought that page was there to leave my own personal comments on the article it references.  I was, however, a little confused about which page to post to so I moved the comment from the Talk:Pink Floyd/Comments page to the Pink Floyd/Comments until I realised that they were originally on the correct page.  I cannot remove the comments from Pink Floyd/Comments without it reverting.  Clarification please.  Jubilee♫ clipman  04:45, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * All the information is available in the links above. Please read the information about creating your first article, before attempting further posting. To add information to the Pink Floyd talk page in Mainspace, go here: Pink Floyd, then click on the talk page link at the top. This is where you can contribute information which may be used to update the article if all parties agree. Information is also available here: WP:SAND. Best regards. -- Oliver Twisted  04:48, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I am still in the dark. None of the links explain what I have done wrong. I came to the page you reference by clicking the link embedded in the words The article has been rated for quality and/or importance but has no comments yet. If appropriate, please review the article and then leave comments here to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the article and what work it will need  found in the WikiProject Pink Floyd (Rated FA-Class) section of This article is within the scope of the following WikiProjects found at the top of the Pink Floyd talk page.  Since this appears to invite my unadulterated comments on the quality and importance of the article, I duly set out to leave my opinions.  I then realised that I might be on the wrong page since I was in the Talk section rather than the on the Main Page of that article so I moved my comments there ie to  (Which I note now redirects to the Main article on Pink Floyd).  However, I immediately realised that I had been in the correct place after all, since the words found in WikiProject Pink Floyd (Rated FA-Class) had indeed changed to my comments after I had posted to [].  I therefore reverted, manually.  Was my mistake in creating the Mainspace article Pink Floyd/Comments or in the actual comments I made?  Or is there some other issue here that I am yet to understand?  Jubilee♫ clipman  05:24, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Apologies, but you completely lost me there. I really think you should spend a little more time getting familiar with correct editing procedures, before attempting such a major cleanup project. Please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Questions to get further help with this. Best regards. -- Oliver Twisted  05:29, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you referring to my contributions to the actual article on Pink Floyd (which I have indeed contributed to extensively) or to the comments I left about the article after being sent to the page and then which I later moved moved by mistake to another page?  The latter hardly seems like a major cleanup, but rather the addition of a little comment followed by a stupid error and an attempt to correct that error.  I think you will need to explicitly state what I did wrong, including all the steps I took during the process, so that I can avoid making the same mistake in the future. Otherwise I am totally in the dark here!Jubilee♫ clipman  05:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I can't follow this particular trail as you have attempted to explain it. Consider WP:ADOPT for more personal attention. Best regards. -- Oliver Twisted  05:47, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Further Explanation I don't want you to think I am critiquing your edits on Pink Floyd. I have not reviewed your edits. My comments were only directed at creating pages in Mainspace, which you outlined was an accident. Please keep in mind that no one can interpret your intentions, only the result. I hope this clarifies why the notice regarding Pink Floyd/Comment was posted to the page. Best regards. -- Oliver Twisted  05:55, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think I am beginning to follow: the notice referred to my creating a page unlawfully, not to the actual content of that page. I will be careful from now on  For that purpose, I have taken your advice and requested adoption.  Thanks for the heads up, though - even if I am still a little unclear about its precice meaning!  Jubilee♫ clipman  06:13, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm glad we have reached an understanding. Let's just chalk the page creation to a random accident, and the misunderstanding to overlapping edit syndrome. Deal? -- Oliver Twisted  06:30, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
 * LOL!!!! Deal... ;) Jubilee♫ clipman 06:38, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
